Top 10 Actresses I Never Want To Hear Are "Hot" Again

Cameron Diaz was recently posted on the site, and we got to talking about the most overrated actresses in terms of hotness. Since there isn't a bunch going on in the sports world, here is my top 10 (in no order) of women I never want to hear are "hot" again...

1. Cameron Diaz - Was hot back in the days of "The Mask", but now looks like muscle bound 60 year old.
2. Julia Roberts - Never really got why people thought she was so hot. I mean she ok, but never should be on a "most beautiful" list.
3. Sarah Jessica Parker - My foot is better looking. I hate anytime I ever have to look at her.
4. Drew Barrymore - I remember one time I saw her on a top 100 hottest celebrities on the planet thing. I forget the magazine, but this girl has it all in terms of awfulness. She isn't hot, has a lisp, and movies are terrible.
5. Kate Hudson - Listen, I think she pulls off that "girl next door" look, but I have heard people put her near the top of their lists, and I just don't get it.
6. Hilary Swank - Terrible, just terrible. Good actress, but terrible. She looks like my buddy Hoban, and that's always bugged me out. Gross, go away.
7. Maggie Gyllenhaal - AHHHHHHH!!!! How is she even in movies? Honestly, what the hell is that about. Now I know this is an overrated list, but she was listed in a top 50 hottest actresses list. People who made that list should be shot.
8. Kirsten Dunst - Yea, we all know she looked good soaked kissing Spiderman, or at least that's what some people think. Take a closer look. Fucked up teeth, and really not all that much hot about her.
9. Renee Zellweger - Looked OK in "Liar, Liar" (Jim Carrey knows when to pick them huh?), but she is just not hot. Always looking like she just sucked a lemon, and has a real annoying voice.
10. Uma Thurman - Great actress, and I do feel a little bad for having her on this list, but she isn't hot and yet seems to be on every "hot celebrity" list.

Top 5 Boston Sports Columnists/Personalities

Kind of a slow day, so you know what that means??? Yup, a random ranking of something! Today is my favorite local sports personalities for Boston. No players, just writers, and TV personalities...

1. Jackie MacMullan - Yea, I'm shocked a woman tops the list, but it's hard to argue it. She has the best stories, gets the inside scoop on everything (especially basketball), and is very well spoken. Oh, and she actually has a good sense of humor. Probably the only person that isn't a player or a coach that I have an appointment to listen to every week. She is also really good on Around the Horn.

2. Michael Smith - Another person that is just great to listen to. He is probably the most "fun" to listen to. He has jokes that don't just reference the 1950's (cough couch Bob Ryan), and overall just seems like a cool guy. Another person that is really well spoken, and seems to be everywhere lately (WEEI, Around the Horn, SportsNation, PTI, ect).

3. Tony Massarotti - Some people really hate him, but I have always been a big fan. He covers baseball so well. He isn't the best to listen to, but his columns are always very entertaining and interesting, which says a lot to someone who hates reading articles that are longer then a page.

4. Bill "The Sports Guy" Simmons - A couple years back he probably would've been #1 or #2, but I feel his work has kind of fallen off since he moved out to LA and had a family. He is the king of movie/TV references, which when you're a TV junky like me makes for an entertaining read. Most of all I love his basketball coverage.

5. Michael Holley/Dale Arnold - I couldn't put one on without the other. Holley is a great basketball mind, and I find him pretty funny. I like Dale because he is the only guy on WEEI that actually talks about the Bruins and knows hockey. These guys should have the morning show instead of the ass clowns Dennis and Callahan.

Other "notables": Bob Ryan, Peter Gammons. I just didn't feel right putting Gammons on since he is basically retired. Best baseball writer ever.

Most Hated: Jerry Callahan, John Dennis, Jon Meterparel, Michael Felger, Dan Shaunessey.

My Top 10 Shows Of All-Time

When there is a slow day, there is only 1 thing to do. Make lists!!!

Ok, here is a list of my top 10 shows of all-time. I guess I should say my favorite "dramas" of all-time, because I decided to cut out all comedies and also mini-series (ex. Band of Brothers). It is just too hard to compare a show like South Park or Family Guy to LOST.


1. LOST

I don't care what anyone says about how it ended and blah, blah, blah, there has never been a show that I have been that in to, and probably will never be again. Awesome interesting plot that kept you guessing whether you like it or not.

2. Dexter

It has had 1 bad season (season 2 or 3) I forget, but overall is just awesome. Another show that really changed the way TV Shows are made. You know a show is good if you can take a serial killer and make him likable.

3. X-Files

Yea, there are haters, but this is my list and I always enjoyed this show (same with Fringe). Sometimes there were episodes that were terrible, but the ones that had to do with the main storyline (Aliens, cigarette smoking man, ect) were awesome. The ending of the show wasn't the greatest, but then again what show really has a great ending... not many.

4. Oz

Another "gritty" show, much more then the wire. It was violent and sometimes hard to watch, yet it always held your interest. The later seasons got kinda weird, but early on it was one of the best.

5. The Walking Dead

I know only 1 season, but in a time when everything is always the same this show has at least changed it up. I hate zombies, but I even like this show. You are always on the edge of your seat, because (like the characters) you never feel safe. It will be interesting to see how it progresses.

6. The Wire

Finally got around to watching this show, and although I haven't seen a ton of episodes (working on that) I can already tell this show has everything I like. Slow burn that feels realistic, and the social commentary is the best of any show I have ever seen. Maybe this is too early to be on my list, but I can almost guarantee it will slide into the 3 spot when I watch all of them.

7. Sopranos

Although I am not as high on this show as a lot of other people, it's hard to argue it isn't one of the best ever. If you cut out that awful season when takes place mostly in a comma/dream state the rest of the show was pretty awesome.

8. 24

The later season sucked. There is no argument here, and I didn't even watched the last season and a half, but the early seasons (1-4) were awesome. It's just really too bad they let it drag on as long as it did.

9. Fringe

The new age X-Files has been entertaining since it came out. I can understand why people wouldn't like the show, because a lot of the premises are just ridiculous, but I always find myself eventually watching it. They just moved it to Friday nights, so that probably means it is coming to an end.

10. House

Oh my guilty pleasure. I don't watch them in order, and I don't really have to. I guess it is just my "CSI". I don't really care about the subplots, and to be honest it's hard to explain why I even like it. Maybe it really is just to see how many bad "James Bond" one liners House will drop in a given episode.

Shows I haven't watch yet, but I hear are good...

Mad Men, Breaking Bad, True Blood.

Shows I tried, but couldn't get in to...

Friday Night Lights, The Shield, The Event, Heroes.

Top 10 Scary Movies

When I say scary I don't mean just good movies that are in the "horror" genre, but rather movies that scared the shit out of when throughout my life...

There aren't in any particular order, just who I would I have in my top 10.

10. Dawn of the Dead
9. Event Horizon
8. 28 Days Later
7. The Shining
6. Paranormal Activity
5. Poltergeist
4. The Exorcist
3. Saw (just the 1st one)
2. The Stand
1. The Ring

Is The Joker The Best Villain Of All Time?

I just got back from seeing The Dark Knight (I know I am way behind), and the movie was good, but what really blew me away was Heath Ledger as the Joker. I know, I know, everyone is already making a big deal out of it, but I thought most of that was because he was dead. I was wrong. He was awesome, and just the perfect person to play that darker version of the Joker that the Batman movies are trying to potray. He (the Joker) is a man with no consciece or reason for what he does, other than to prove that the world can't be tamed, and when people try to control civilization things only get worse.

Anyways it got me thinking about the best villians of all time, so here is my top 10 list.

1. Darth Vader - James Earl Jones - Star Wars
2. Hannibal Lecter - Anthony Hopkins - Silence of the Lambs
3. John 'Jack' Daniel Torrance - Jack Nicholson - The Shining
4. The Joker - Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight
5. Keyzer Soze - Kevin Spacey - The Usual Suspects
6. Max Cady - Cape Fear - Robert De Niro
7. Tyler Durden - Fight Club - Brad Pitt
8. Hans Gruber - Alan Rickman - Die Hard
9. Norman Bates - Anthony Perkins - Psycho
10. Annie Wilkes - Kathy Bates - Misery
